Over the last decade a number of research areas have contributed to the concept of advanced intelligent environments, these include ubiquitous computing, pervasive computing, embedded intelligence, intelligent user interfaces, human factors, intelligent buildings, mobile communications, domestic robots, intelligent sensors, artistic and architectural design and ambient intelligence. Undeniably, multimodal spoken language dialogue interaction is a key factor in ensuring natural interaction and therefore of particular interest for advanced intelligent environments. The book covers all the key topics in the field of intelligent environments from a variety of leading researchers.

Inhabited Intelligent Environments
There is an increasing amount of research into the area of pervasive computing, smart homes and intelligent spaces, one example being that of the DTI-funded Pervasive Home Environment Networking (PHEN) project. Much of the current research focuses on ...
Intelligent association selection of embedded agents in intelligent inhabited environments
Recent advances in technology and manufacturing have resulted in more powerful and smaller processors to be embedded in the various artefacts within smart environments. Most of these artefacts are network enabled and thanks to pervasive networking such ...
